zammaries

Zammaries refers to a term that has been used in various contexts, including law and finance. In a legal context, a white-collar crime involving acts of cheating or deceit, especially by an employee or a person in a position of trust, may be referred to as a zammery. This can include actions such as embezzlement, insider trading, or other types of financial misconduct.

In finance, a zammery may involve a company or investor engaging in questionable or deceptive accounting practices or other manipulative behaviors aimed at achieving financial gain. This can include techniques such as creative accounting, where the reporting of financial information is made to appear more favorable than it actually is.

The term zammery is often associated with the Zammery definition, a concept devised by Edward G. Robinson and Bertram Randolph in their 1964 essay "Notes on Ecthesis." According to this definition, a zammery is any statement or action that is contradicted by empirical data or reality.

It is worth noting that while the term zammery has been colloquially referred to in some literature and academic works, it is not a widely recognized or standard term in law or finance. As such, any interpretation or application of the term zammery should be used with caution and consideration of the specific context in which it is being applied.
